4 out of 5 stars Canadian country bands debut.......2000-12-15

Canadian country band's debut album is terrific. But why only 9 songs? Anyway, the 9 songs that are here are for sure worth the price. Their version of George Jones 'Rain Rain' is especially good. They are also pretty good songwriters, as their subsequent albums will reveal more of. On this album there are 3 originals by Keith and one by Joan. A very good traditional type of country...recommended.

4 out of 5 stars Nice debut for Prairie Oyster & previously unavailable in US.......2000-06-11

Prairie Oyster's debut album "Oyster Tracks" is a fine accomplishment and a sign of great things to come for this Toronto-based country band. It is interesting to note that this album has been previously unavailable in the US. Thanks to Amazon, this has been rectified. It would be nice if their other US-released, but now out-of-print albums ("Different Kind of Fire" - 1990; "Everybody Knows" - 1991; and "Only One Moon" - released in 1994 in Canada and 1996 in the US) would be made available in the US as Canadian imports via Amazon.com as well as their Canadian- only release "What is this Country?" (1998).

"Oyster Tracks" successfully blends traditional and contemporary country in a unique synthesis with a wonderful Tex-Mex remake of the George Jones/Wynn Stewart classic "Rain Rain" (complete with Spanish horns) and the very beautiful slow dancing country waltz "Man in the Moon." Other standout tracks include the bluesy, Fats Domino-inspired "I'm Learning" which breaks out into a Dixieland arrangement (fun and swinging); "Juke Joint Johnny" (raw country blues); and "Give it a Little More Time." This is the only Oyster album where Keith Glass shares in some of the lead vocal work ("You Got a Way, "Give It a Little More Time", "Other Side of Town") with bassist Russell deCarle, and both sound very fine. Joan Besen's piano playing is like tasty barbecue sauce; John P. Allen's fiddle playing is terrific; and Dennis Delorme's pedal steel guitar work is the "icing on the cake." The production of this CD is very tasteful and much better than their following album "Different Kind of Fire." Only criticism: a short CD but most country CDs are............. Discover the album that led to a bucket of Juno awards in their native Canada.

Product Description

Hear samples on CDBaby @ www.cdbaby.com/liquefaction2. Liquefaction is a female solo project that is electronically charged with diverse contrasts of surreal, dream-like emotion and intense industrial styles. The birth of Liquefaction began with the release of Chrysalis in 2003. This was the first of the planned, conceptual 5 disc series which uses a metaphorical story of the life and times of an angel born into an apocalyptic world to relate to reality and the personal journey that everyone must face. Liquefactions Emerge is Kindel's 2nd album on the DSBP label. Its a nice progression from "Chrysalis" and will carve her own identity into the electronic scene. This album is very diverse, richly textured and well produced. She mixes a cohesive set of electronic, industrial, rock, ethereal, string sounds and plenty of interesting samples with beautifully harmonic female vocals and true emotion. The tracks are very catchy and memorable and will have you singing along. You can hear influences from the past mixing in a futuristic style overall. Emerge is a thematic album with a lot of details and dancey tracks as well as melodic instrumental music. It contains two remixes from E.S. R, and TECNOMAN S.F., as well as incredible cover version of "Don't Fear the Reaper"(BLUE OYSTER CULT.)

5 out of 5 stars Move Over Enigma! The successor is here - Kindel.......2005-06-14

I purchased this album 'Emerge' straight from the seller who actually was Kindel, the creator of this wonderous, beautiful, hauntingly enchanting and magnificient vocals. It feels like God sent his most cherished angelette down to Earth to sing for us, Kindel has a wonderful voice, sends me into joyous shivers one minute and into a epiphany where I want to sing along with her. This CD has 14 tracks and the 14 songs are truly breathtaking in sound and in her vocals. I loved the song 'Lifeless, Emerge and Elf' from the beginnings of this album her second in what I believe will be 5 albums all together and I know already that I will get all 5.
The music blends a number of styles and genres together from rock, ambience, industrial to a bit of lite trance and electronica. They are all mixed and it comes out sound very beautiful and listenable. The remixes on this album also do the original songs justice and add to the overall CD experience. Any fan of Era, Enigma, Delerium and Lesiem will love this artist and her beauty that shows in this fabulous CD.
Also the last song is a favourite of mine, 'Cascade'. It ends the CD in a great note.
